The Northwest Door Models We Install
Northwest Door builds its insulated steel doors as the Therma-Tech line, in four insulation tiers, plus aluminum and wood options. We help you pick the tier and style that fit your garage and budget.
Therma-Tech and Therma-Tech II: everyday insulation
The original Therma-Tech has an R-9 insulation value, while the Therma-Tech II steps up to R-10.4 with a thicker, high-density core. Both are durable insulated steel doors and a strong upgrade from an uninsulated builder door.
Therma Max and Tri-Tech: maximum insulation
For a garage that takes the worst of the afternoon sun, the Therma Max reaches R-12, and the Tri-Tech tops the line at R-16 with a thicker three-inch insulated build and a flexible joint seal. These are the doors to choose when the garage touches living space, or you park it there daily.
Four panel styles
Every Therma-Tech model comes in Contemporary smooth, Traditional raised-panel, Ranch long-panel, or Carriage looks, so the insulation you need does not force a look you do not want.
Aluminum full-view and cedar wood
The Modern Classic line is an all-aluminum, full-view door that pairs a rust-resistant aluminum frame with glass for a bright, contemporary look. Northwest Door also crafts custom doors from Western red cedar for homeowners who want real wood.

Therma-Tech: The Insulation Ladder That Sets Northwest Door Apart
Northwest Door's signature is Therma-Tech, a line of insulated steel doors offered in four climbing R-values so you can right-size the insulation to your garage. In Central Texas, that choice is worth real money on your comfort and your power bill.
R-values that actually matter here
The line runs from R-9 on the original Therma-Tech to R-10.4 on the Therma-Tech II to R-12 on the Therma Max to R-16 on the Tri-Tech. On a west-facing or attached garage, a higher R-value keeps the space cooler, cuts noise, and takes strain off your opener.
Built to hold up, not just insulate
The higher tiers use a thicker high-density core and, on the Tri-Tech, a thicker three-inch build with a flexible joint seal, so the door resists heat transfer and runs solid and quiet for years. Insulation and durability come together rather than trading off.
We help you right-size it
You do not need an R-16 on every door. We look at how your garage faces the sun, whether it touches living space, and how you use it, and then recommend the Therma-Tech tier that pays for itself without overspending.
Central Texas Conditions
Contemporary, Carriage, and Cedar Looks Built for Central Texas
Insulation does not have to mean a plain door. Northwest Door pairs its Therma-Tech insulation with four panel styles and offers full-view aluminum and real cedar, so you get the look you want and the insulation you need.
A look for every street
Contemporary smooth, Traditional raised-panel, Ranch long-panel, and Carriage styles let a Therma-Tech door read as modern, classic, or carriage-house to suit your home and clear your HOA. The insulation is the same either way.
Real cedar, or glass and aluminum
For a genuine wood look, Northwest Door builds custom doors from Western red cedar, a species that handles the Texas climate better than many woods. For a bright, modern face, the Modern Classic all-aluminum full-view door pairs a rust-resistant frame with glass.

We Service Northwest Door Too, and Every Other Brand
Buying a Northwest Door from us means you have a local team to call for years afterward. A Northwest Door uses standard torsion springs, cables, rollers, and openers, so we keep the parts on the truck, and most repairs are same-day.
And you do not have to own a Northwest Door for us to help. We install Northwest Door as one of several brands we trust, but we service every brand of garage door, so whatever is on your home now, we can repair it, tune it up, or replace it.

Why Buy Your Northwest Door From Squared Away
A great door can still disappoint if it goes in poorly. Here is what you get when we handle it.
A local shop, not a call center
We are based in Cedar Park, and the owners answer the phone. The crew that hangs your Northwest Door is the crew that comes back to service it, never a subcontractor.
Straight advice on insulation
Because we install several brands, we have no reason to oversell an R-16 Tri-Tech if an R-10 door fits your garage and budget. We recommend the insulation tier that pays you back and no more.
A careful, correct installation
Springs sized to the door, the balance tuned, the opener set, and a clean garage. On a heavier insulated door, the install is what keeps it quiet and true for years.
Free estimates and financing
The quote is free and firm, and financing is available, so a better-insulated Northwest Door is within reach. No surprises, no pressure.
Straightforward Pricing
Warranty and What a Northwest Door Costs
You get two layers of protection: the Northwest Door manufacturer warranty on the door itself, which varies by model and construction, plus our own workmanship guarantee on the install. We go over the exact coverage with you before you buy. Every new door we install also comes with your choice of a 2-year or 5-year service-and-labor warranty.
Pricing depends on the model, insulation tier, size, and finish you choose, and an entry Therma-Tech costs far less than a Tri-Tech or a cedar door. We give you a firm, written quote with the free estimate. Our current promotions can take $100 off a single door or $200 off a double, and financing is available if you would rather spread it out.
